The 2013 Atlantic hurricane forecast from the renowned duo of meteorologists at Colorado State University remains unchanged—18 named storms, nine hurricane and four major hurricanes.
Philip Klotzbach and William Gray of CSU, now in its 30th year of issuing seasonal forecasts for the Atlantic basin, continue to estimate a 72-percent chance at least one of these storms will strengthen to a major hurricane (Category 3 or higher) and make landfall somewhere on the U.S. coast from Texas to Maine.
There is a 96-percent chance a hurricane of any strength will make landfall—with the usual suspects at the head of the list of landfall.
